ssnap_cohort_names: Pre-built SSNAP cohorts

In md0u80c9/SSNAPStats: Stroke Sentinel National Audit Project (SSNAP) Statistics Calculations

Description

This is a vector of valid cohort names used by the SSNAP dataset. SSNAP uses pre-defined cohorts which match cohort selection, to the type of operation to perform and the list of outputs: this makes using the outputs simpler than using the lower-level generic audit functions.

Usage

ssnap_cohort_names

Format

An object of class character of length 9.

Details

Team72HrCohortKIs

This cohort provides the team centred Key Indicators only for records locked to 72h for patients who arrived at hospital (or had their stroke in hospital). The results are taken from the first record locked to 72hrs for the patient. The results are attributed to the first team which treated the patient, regardless of which team locked the record to 72h (i.e. the second team may have locked the record to 72h, but results are attributed to first team).

Patient72HrCohortKIs

This cohort provides the patient centred Key Indicators only for the first 72 hours of care and is based on records locked to 72h for patients who arrived at hospital (or had their stroke in hospital) divided into the aggregated time period.

Team72HrCohortPortfolio

This cohort provides the full team centred portfolio for records locked to 72h for patients who arrived at hospital (or had their stroke in hospital). The results are taken from the first record locked to 72hrs for the patient. The results are attributed to the first team which treated the patient, regardless of which team locked the record to 72h (i.e. the second team may have locked the record to 72h, but results are attributed to first team).

Patient72HrCohortPortfolio

This cohort provides the patient centred portfolio for the first 72 hours of care and is based on records locked to 72h for patients who arrived at hospital (or had their stroke in hospital) divided into the aggregated time period.

TeamDischargeCohortKIs

Results attributed to discharging team are attributed to the team which discharged the patient from inpatient care. The team centred post-72h results are based on records locked to discharge for patients who were discharged from inpatient care between the aggregated time periods.

Team7DayCohortKIs

NOT YET COMPLETE For the team centred post-72h results, measures are attributed to teams depending on the point at which they treated the patient along the inpatient pathway. Results attributed to the ‘7 day team’ are attributed to the team which had the patient in their care at 7 days following clock start (or, if the length of stay as an inpatient was less than 7 days, the team which discharged the patient from inpatient care). These results include measures which are considered to be most appropriately designated to the team which had the patient in their care at 7 days, but does not necessarily indicate that the care was received within 7 days. For instance, one measure in this section is whether the patient had a urinary continence plan by discharge. It is attributed to the team which had the patient at 7 days, but the measure is whether the patient had the plan by discharge.

TeamPost72HrsAllTeamsCohortKIs

Results attributed to all teams are for measures which are answered for every patient by every team along the pathway (therapy intensity, rehab goal setting, length of stay in hospital and on stroke unit and the discharge/transfer destination). These results are based only on what the team provided rather than what the patient received across the whole pathway, e.g. the team centred length of stay is the length of stay at each particular team compared to the patient centred length of stay which is the length of stay the patient had across all teams. The team centred post-72h all teams results are based on records locked to discharge or where a transfer to another team has been actioned between each aggregating period. This includes all records which have either been discharged out of inpatient care or transferred to another inpatient team.

PatientPost72HrsCohortKIs

NOT YET COMPLETE This section shows the patient centred results for the care between 72 hours and discharge from inpatient care. It is attributed to all teams which treated the patient at any point in their care. This means that a team which only treated the patient during the first 72h will still have the results for this patient's care between 72 hours and discharge from inpatient care. We hope that this will encourage an open dialogue between teams treating patients along a care pathway and that teams treating the patient initially reflect on the continuing care they receive, as this will also impact upon the initial team's longer term outcome results. The patient centred post-72h results are based on records locked to discharge for patients who were discharged between each aggregating period.
